Distress: My Years in Defeng Ancient Road

Chapter 96
The moon was in the middle of the sky, and there was a gentle breeze. The two people who were at the pinnacle of Confucianism in the world met for the first time.

The holy energy of the Confucian school spontaneously resonated with the heaven and the earth. The sound of the steady bell and chime came first, and then, the sound of the Qingling zither sounded from the void, echoing it.

For a while, the empty mountain top was like spring returning to the earth, and visions frequently appeared.

"Ha~"

After a few breaths, the two restrained their energy and looked at each other with a smile. It is not impossible for an expert to talk about things on the mountain, but it is still a little tasteless.

The main reason is that in case of a fight, it is no problem to build a mountain in a place where there is no one, but it is a big problem to destroy your own house.

Then, Taixuezhu took the lead in speaking: "How does the master think about the current situation?"

"In today's world, there is a situation where there is one superpower and many powers. Although the strength of our Confucianism is a little weaker after all, we can't rely on Buddhism or Taoism to rule the world, right?"

There was a little more contempt in Lin Chongyang's tone, as if he disdained something.

Master Taixue took up the conversation, but he spoke in agreement: "Buddhism and Taoism governing the world are really ridiculous, so at this moment, our Confucianism school must work together."

With the same attitude and position, Lin Chongyang returned the topic to its true nature:
"The new era of Confucianism is facilitated, thanks to the Master Taixue for his help."

After the whole process, it is enough to see the master of Taixue's ability to push the boat along the way and make use of his strength, not only to establish Xuehai Wuya's crucial position in the Confucian school in the future, but also to allow both parties to accept their love.

"It's better than the boss sitting on the Diaoyutai."

A meaningful sentence was uttered by the Tai Xuezhu, and the opponent's single-handed pressure allowed him to logically integrate the conservatives who came to ask for help.

He accepted this love, and then in the subsequent epoch-making policy, he returned this love backhandedly. Human favors are not suitable to be dragged in the hands for a long time.

The vice-principal is not a person who is easy to deal with. He has a certain amount of advance and retreat, and is full of aggression in humility. Although the opponent's cards are very confident, he will not take advantage of the situation and only take the part that should be done. It was just right, but after a few rounds, those stubborn old men sold themselves.

The vice-principal is like this, let alone the right one.

Sure enough, Lin Chongyang's next words were three points more humble:
"I'm just taking over the foundation of my elders, and I'm still a little worse than my elders."

There is indeed humility in the words, but whether the words are true or not depends on everyone's understanding.

"If I hadn't seen it face to face, it would be hard to imagine that this statement came from the mouth of the Confucian Sword Emperor. Excessive modesty is hypocrisy."

The movement made by Lin Chongyang in the past was also one of the reasons why Tai Xuezhu was able to cooperate with Defeng Gudao to arrange the old school without any psychological pressure.

The scene of Wan Jian bowing his head and bowing to the Emperor of Swords together is still vivid in his memory, and those wastes can't help but jump out, whether they read the sage books to the point of losing their minds, or they don't pay attention to others at all.

"However, if you are seeking truth from facts, how can you be hypocritical, after all, some people don't take me seriously."

Hearing the deep meaning in Taixue's master's words, Lin Chongyang also accepted it openly, after all, it was the truth.

Confucianism in a difficult situation, political power can't come out of the pen, it still depends on hard power, so not only the Tai Xuezhu, but also Lin Chongyang can't figure out where they come from for their self-confidence.

"So they've paid the price."

He has read the books on Defeng Gudao. Although there are many academic debates and ideological disputes in the Confucian school, they are all middle and lower levels.

Although Tai Xuezhu is not a reformist, he also understands that he must develop with the times and not rest on his laurels.

Lin Chongyang heard the words and joked: "Is the Taixue mainly protecting them?"

"No, I was just thinking that it would be a bit wasteful to solve it hastily."

Yes, that's right, the attitudes of the two are the same when it comes to dealing with those old and stubborn people.

If we talk about the difference, Lin Chongyang simply thinks that a person like this who enjoys the benefits of resources but does not do anything will deserve to die, but since he is going to die, then he should make more contributions to the Confucianism.

The Master Taixue thinks that those people are not motivated enough. Since he has been integrated, he can completely promote some motivated juniors to take over. Now that the juniors have been promoted, it is better for those useless seniors to disappear.

"It's indeed a bit of a waste. They are all the pillars of my Confucianism. How could they end up like this?"

Different from other Confucian lines, the line of Confucian saints and bright virtues arranges the posthumous affairs. Although it is all voluntary by Confucian scholars, this "voluntary" can be guided by thought.

Therefore, in terms of the regulation and utilization of resources, this lineage is stronger than other Confucian lines. To put it bluntly, even the dead are not spared.

"Listen to what the master said, did you choose a way out for them?"

In Taixuezhu's opinion, the best way to deal with it is to let them be heroic, and then with a little operation, they can accumulate a lot of reputation for Confucianism, and use this to expand the influence of Confucianism and increase their status in the hearts of the people .

If this is the case, the other party should have the same idea, then the other party should have some information.

"Does Master Taixue know about the battle of Shiliu Island in the past?"

Although the details of the Battle of Shiliu Island in the past have been sealed, the general story is still circulated among high-level officials. After all, it is used to gain momentum.

"If I remember correctly, the principal is a person who has personally experienced it, so there is no need to be a secret."

"In the past, we only killed four of the eight tribes of Tianxie, and now there are still undercurrents lurking in Shenzhou. If there is another disaster for Tianxie, let them die for the sake of the common people."

"Huh? Then let them stay useful first."

In Lin Chongyang's words, there was still some content that was not exhaustive, and the Grand Scholar could hear this, but Lin Chongyang did not deliberately hide it, but only picked out what needed to be used.

At the same time, it also confirmed the previous conjecture of the Tai Xuezhu. The other party had a certain amount of information, and the inevitability of the matter was revealed in his tone.

"Tai Xue Zhu Gao Yi."

"It's all for the sake of Confucianism, for the sake of the common people in the world, and what we can do should not be regarded as high-mindedness."

In this way, everything will be logical. The reformers are taking the initiative to innovate. Although the academics will not take the initiative to innovate, they also know to move at any time. If there is an east wind, they will take advantage of it.

The positions of the two sides are naturally very close, and naturally there will be no civil war.

The two discussed some other details. Time passed quietly, and they saw the full moon sinking to the west and the eastern sky turning white.

"The two sides are now communicating with each other, why don't you and I take advantage of the situation to learn from each other?"

Now that the business has come to an end, it would be a pity not to fight in such a place where there are no people for thousands of miles.

"As it should be, I also want to see the demeanor of the Emperor of Swords."

For Lin Chongyang's invitation to fight, Tai Xuezhu readily agreed, and he also wanted to test the opponent's strength.

"Please."

"Please."
